According to recent reports, a new issue has been plaguing some iPhone users where their phone alarms aren’t going off as expected. Apple has acknowledged the problem and is actively working on a fix.
People on social media have been very vocal about this issue, and Apple is taking steps
Social media reports over the past few weeks highlighted this issue, and some users suspect it might be linked to the iPhone’s “Gaze Awareness” feature. This feature is designed to automatically reduce notification volume when the user is looking at the phone. The speculation is that Gaze Awareness might be misinterpreting user attention and lowering the alarm volume even when the user is asleep.
While Apple hasn’t confirmed the exact cause, users can try disabling Gaze Awareness as a potential solution. This can be done through the Settings app by navigating to Face ID & Passcode and turning off Gaze Awareness. Resolving this issue is quite high up in Apple’s list of priorities, since Alarms are key to any smartphone user’s schedule, and bugs and issues like these only add to the exasperation of the user who has to rely on other methods to set an alarm reliably. We’ll keep you updated if and when Apple releases a fix for this, stay tuned to Gizmochina for more.
